    I might be biased as a Z owner but I still think these are some of the best looking cars stock, and they also look great with minimal mods. It's just slightly disappointing to see minimal refreshes over the years. However, it is also kinda nice because for the most part there are around 12 yrs worth of parts and knowledge to help you build your Z.

    Your point about grip is spot on. The longer I've owned my Z, the more I've come to just trust it around tight bends. Even with the TC off it stays planted very well. The fact that you can just as easily power slide around corners makes it that much more versatile of a machine.

It was an absolute blast to drive and it had a lot of power. I love the interior on the thing, but it wasn't the perfect car for me. I ended up switching to a C6 corvette and won't look back.

    One thing that drove me crazy about my old 6MT G35 sedan was how short the 1st gear was. You have to rev the engine pretty high even in normal driving to keep up with traffic. A car with a decent amount of torque I felt like it was a waste to have such short gearing.

    I still love the 370z. Yeah, they're pretty outdated (mainly interior wise) but the engine with a manual is so much fun and the new Nismo looks soo good. I can't attest too much about the driving characteristics of the z but I own a g37 sedan and with aftermarket sways, the car drives amazingly well. Just wish the g also had the active rev matching. It would've been a nice feature to play with.

    • @ctng37
      @ctng37 2 года назад +2

      @@leonelbarra-alvarez8424 The reason I say it's outdated is mainly the interior with the infotainment system. It was an okay system back in 2009 when it first came out but the fact that you get 2009 tech in a 2020 car was its downfall imo. I think the main argument for the car being old is that the engine and transmission is something out of 2009 where newer cars tend to use direct injection and some sort of forced induction. Don't get me wrong, I love the VQ in this car, but some people may see it as a negative. However, the new Nissan Z does seem like it will solve those issues. I am very excited about the new Z.
      In terms of snow performance, I barely have any experience but rwd would be more difficult to drive for the average person because oversteer is generally more difficult to control than understeer. I'm sure that with proper snow tires and a competent driver, they won't have issues but for the everyday driver, it may be more difficult.

Amazing seating position aswell and makes a lot of torque for what it is..Could use another 15hp for the top end power but low end and mid-range is strong..and that 15hp can easily be achieved buy one of the many tunes they make for these cars ..I drove the automatic tho so I can't speak on the manual .I'm sure it's just as fun if not more shifting the gears yourself and the instant throttle response even tho people say these are actually faster in the auto

    • @VolvosandHondas
      @VolvosandHondas 4 года назад

      Major Mayhem we must have driven very different cars, in my experience both the 350z and the 370 suffer from lifeless steering. Its tight but artificially so, it doesnt communicate the road nearly as well as its competitors. But again, it isnt meant to. Its for all intents and purposes a japanese mustang, not a worthy rival of the miata or a 86. Too heavy. Understeers like a pig and that cheap feeling interior translates in to the entire driving experience, everything about it feels halfway complete (once again, a 6 tenths car) Its a real shame too because nissan used to be really good about making playful chassis’. These days they develop a decent engine and cobble the rest of the car together with scraps.
      For what its worth though i love the vq35 to death (not so much the 37 for reasons i cant quantify, namely sound) I daily drove an altima with one for years and it refused to die. Sold it with 280k miles on the clock. Then again, it was designed in a much better time for nissan... even then though the build quality was miserable, and its only become worse with time.
